DIRECTIONS:
- Combine the water and rice in a pot and bring it to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Allow the rice to cook 15 minutes, or until it seems most of the water has evaporated. Remove from heat, leaving the lid on and allow the rice to steam another 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
- While the rice cooks, prepare the korma sauce, FunGuy mushrooms, and shrimp.
- Heat the ghee in a deep pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook 3-4 minutes or until softened. Add the garlic, ginger, turmeric, cinnamon stick, and chilies to the pan and cook another 2-3 minutes. Remove the chilies once they have become fragrant for a milder sauce, or leave them in for spicier.
- Add the sliced mushrooms, coriander seed, and cumin to the pan and sauté 5 minutes. Stir in the vegetable stock and tomato paste, allowing it to cook another 5-7 minutes, or until reduced by half. Stir in the coconut milk and allow it to cook another 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the shrimp to the pan and cook another 5 minutes, or until the shrimp has turned pink and have curled into a “c” shape. Turn off the heat. Taste and season with salt and stir in yogurt.
- Serve the shrimp and mushroom korma with the jasmine rice with chopped cashews and fresh cilantro on top.
Have a Fun meal!
